The Ribeyrolles 1918 was an attempt to manufacture an automatic rifle for the French forces. It was chambered in the experimental 8×35 mm round, used straight blow-back, was fed from a 25 round magazine and had an effective range of 400 m. The cartridge, arguably the first purpose-built intermediate cartridge, was obtained by necking it down the .351 Winchester Self-Loading.〔 Another source indicates that it was chambered in a cartridge designated 8×32 mmSR.〔() has info from cf. ()〕 Its official name was Carabine Mitrailleuse 1918 (Machine Carbine 1918 in English); in a 2007 book it appears as "fusil automatique Ribeyrolles 1918".〔 The Ribeyrolles had the distinction of being fitted with a lightweight bipod on the front (which would be meant to be used as a support weapon for a group of soldiers) and a rifle bayonet identical to that of Berthier Model 1907/15. == See also == * Chauchat-Ribeyrolles 1918 submachine gun * Fedorov Avtomat * Fusil Automatique Modèle 1917 * Vollmer M35 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ribeyrolle 1918 automatic carbine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
